Famous quotes containing the words misty mountain, misty, mountain and/or hop:

    Night’s candles are burnt out, and jocund day
    Stands tiptoe on the misty mountain tops.
    I must be gone and live, or stay and die.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    His more memorable passages are as naturally bright as gleams of sunshine in misty weather. Nature furnishes him not only with words, but with stereotyped lines and sentences from her mint.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    And as it measured in her calipers,
    The mountain stood exalted in its place.
    So love will take between the hands a face. . . .
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I have tried being surreal, but my frogs hop right back into their realistic ponds.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
